Pixel Painting 3 - Hanging Baskets Cellular Automata

This is an acrylic painting from my new series "Pixel
Paintings." In this series, I explore the designs created with cellular
automata. This painting is the third large piece in the series.

In this
series, I am trying to achieve a sense of rhythm, repetition, order and
chaos. I hope to create a balance between organic and geometric.

Each pixel has many layers of paint, making the colors rich and complex. The colors are mostly blue, purple and gray with a variety of pinks and burgundies. Here's a close up.

20" by 30", unframed. Signed
and dated. I sealed it with three coats of acrylic clear coat to make
it a little shiny and protect it from scratches. The sides are painted black so it doesn't need a frame. This painting is SOLD.
